This week we recaped what we already new about triangles. We revised the pythagorean theorom ( a x a + b x b = c x c ). we talked about different types of triangles,

obtuse = over 90 degrees, acute = under 90 degrees, right = 90 degrees

we also learned how to label a right triangle for a trigonometry question. The longest side, and the side directly across from the right angle is the Hypotenuse or H. There may or may not be a given angle. If there is, The side piece directly across from it will be called the Opposite or O. And whatever side is left, is called the Adjacent or A. Wherever the hints on your paper give you can use to find your trig equation, hence SOH CAH TOA

S= O/H   C= A/H.   T= O/A

Sine.      Cosine.     Tangent <——– These are what you use to write out your equation to find the missing pieces of your triangle.
